Yea...I feel ya. I just know you like nice things, and they are a lot of bang for your buck, the sti’s. I don’t have one, but I would if I needed something where it snows.

@Hemmdog drill it with that pink drill and don't stress. Breathe in through you nose and out of your mouth. It will help keep your (drill) trigger finger steady. What's the worst that can happen? It will be a fun video.

Do I need anything to stablize the drill? What if it moves? Do I need that moat of clay around the drill spot for water to pool? Or can I just run a hose over the surface I’m drilling. So many questions. Lol

 

[Katrina71]

I have cut tile the same way with just a hose and I always do it slowly and let the drill make it's own groove slowly. I'm sure these guys will chime in if there are any tips and tricks.

@Hemmdog BRS has a video too

Yea, they make everything look easy though... lol. I love first hand experience from peers. I’ll check it out though.

 

[Katrina71]

@litenyaup any tips or tricks to drilling a tank for @Hemmdog ?

 

[Katrina71]

@Hemmdog DIY Fishkeepers has a really good video

Get a cheap picture frame from the dollar store to practice drilling on that glass.

 

[Why-Me]

After doing some research I've decided to replace my TV with another Samsung, objectively the new QLED are better than the LG OLEDs.
I'll be getting the Samsung Q8FN, it's less than what I paid for my current one so a full refund and payment for this new one will net me $60.
That'll pay for the Starboard for my tank.
WIN/WIN

That’s a great idea. That won’t dull the drill bit will it? They have several “uses” right ?

 

[Why-Me]

yeah, they're not one time use.
